Putin Welcomes Seagal to Moscow Festival
Sun Jun 29, 7:33 AM ET


MOSCOW - Judo enthusiast Vladimir Putin (news - web sites) didn't try out any moves out on action star Steven Seagal (news) when he spoke Sunday to actors taking part in the Moscow International Film Festival.

The Russian president welcomed Seagal along with Italian actress Gina Lollobrigida (news) and Fanny Ardant (news) of France to his country residence outside Moscow.


Putin thanked the stars on behalf of their fans throughout Russia, and said he hoped they would return despite this year's relatively cool Moscow summer.


While in Moscow, Lollobrigida had also opened the first exhibition of her sculptures at a Moscow museum.


The film festival ends Sunday.

That must be so special for you, Tora...I was very pleased to learned he is Russian, I think it's facinating information...Did you know my grandmother took Russian in college? It was a very difficult language to learn so she said...I never knew heard her speak any though...I think Steven is so charismatic, I can image those lucky people and how thrilling it was for them...As you said we can only admire him more with each day...So charming....

BTW, Feel like chatting while you are here?

I was thinking that was Madame (Mrs.) Putin standing behind him and off to the left, but I've only seen her once or twice in photographs, so I could be wrong.

Any chance you could transcribe Steven's speech for us? (write it out from the tape)

Alas, that makes me and Steven (and you, Tora!) ancestral enemies! (I'm Polish - well, Polish background, anyhow!) ;) ;)

Lucky you, to have the tape! Unfortunately, none of our multi-cultural programming here in Toronto includes Russian (we've got Ukrainian and Polish, Chinese and Latino covered, but no Russian) or any clips from Russian tv, either.

And I don't have any of your channels that happen to show Seagal 100 times as often as ours.
I'll write down his speech then and post it later.

That's whatever you think.When he was on the stage giving a speech he seemed too much out of his physical shape to me but what impressed me more about him in a good way his essence doesn't change.He's still attracting me like a **** magnet...That's what's been done to me last night,got me bouncing all around the rooms and shouting out loud from the wild excitement.He might have heard me,huh?

TD,Polish and Russians are enemies?

Oh, yeah - there's a whole history of wars between the two countries. Russia would invade, Poles would rise up and kick 'em out, Russia would invade again - over, and over, and over, like it was a national sport, or something.

My great-grandfather was in one such war - I think the Poles won, that time. (I should tell you my family is very "stretched out" when it comes to family generations - I was born in 1957, my father was born in 1914, his father was born in 1866, and *his* father - my great-grandfather - was born in 1799.)

There's a picture in yesterday's Toronto Star of Steven, with the caption complaining about his "creepy hair". I don't have a copy of it, but my friend does, and as soon as her son fixes her computer, she's going to scan it for me and send it to me so I can upload it to the gallery.

And it does look like he's lost weight since those pictures taken of him in February at the Victoria's Secret book launch. He's looking very good indeed!

-TD, fanning self.

an ASF file is standard.I don't think anyone would need a plug-in...my guess it that it hangs due to it coming from the HTML page....going as direct as possible is the best way.....downloading is even better because then we are not bound to 'traffic" & "connect trouble ".

Exactly !! I agree with you he was lost a weight this time !! He was AWESOME !! I never said for his hair "creepy"!! (If I understand this words correctly) :) I said only not a look nice from the back of the neck !! of course it is my opinion. But TD I am waiting this picture pleaseeeeeee put it to gallery :) I will be very happy to see new photo !! Thank you very much.

Well, it's the caption for the photograph that complains about his "creepy hair" - just another photojournalist taking a nasty potshot at our Steven, as usual! But as soon as I get the photo, I'll post it.

Whee! That's twice in two weeks the Toronto Star has mentioned Steven. Actually, there was a third instance, but my friend can't find it - it was an article about celebrity road rage incidents, and again, Steven is not painted in a very good light - but she can't find the article, now! I've warned her to make sure she saves those articles, or else! :D :D
